1:Bones contain tissues and cells, so they are alive. Because they are alive, they form new tissue as you grow, causing the bone to get larger. So, they cells add on more tissue to make it longer. 2:A baby has more bones than an adult, because the bones fuse together as you grow. Also, a baby's skeleton is not as strong as an adult's. Some things that contain calcium are yogurt (Yoplait original has 50%) milk. This is because of some vitamins and minerals, such as calcium and phosphorus. 3:Exercising and drinking milk and getting calcium and phosphorus can help to get strong bones. Also, if you break or injure a bone, it will be naturally repaired and the new section is usually stronger. Another way to prevent that injury is to wear appropriate protective gear. You could also keep a first-aid kit on hand in case if something bad happens.

Cells of the bone
Injury/Repair
1:You can break, fracture or dislocate bones. A broken or fractured bone is caused when you fall and all your weight is placed on few little bones. That causes it to break. A dislocation is when a bone comes out of its joint. A sprain, however is a torn ligament or if you stretch one too far. 2:A doctor can use an MRI to see if the bone is broken. Another way that they can see if it is broken is by asking you to try to move it. 3:A break is a crack in a part of the bone, where as a fracture is a crack that splits the bone into pieces. 4:You shouldn't put weight on a broken bone. Place ice on the spot of injury. You should also go to a doctor. Another thing that you could do is to go to the doctor very quickly.
